I had a wonderful time with Antonia and Luigi. The first day tour and intro of the town and it's surroundings, their knowledge and training methods, their positivity and motivation when it got a little tough. They helped me overcome various obstacles by believing in me when I didn't think I could do it and for this I'm very grateful. It was a beautiful time and wonderful course!

"Efficient and thorough teacher training"

I had chosen this training based on the reviews and it was even better than I expected. As the groups are very small (in my case one other student) you will get one on one attention and start practicing teaching from day one.

I had actually no expectations on the mental part of the training which was surprisingly thorough and very interesting as well.

The food is pure and very tasty. Overall I was impressed with the details in which everything is organized, from the availability of different kind of tea and snacks to shampoo and toothpaste for people who travel very light.

"Great break to reset"

The hosts antonia and luigi were so kind and hospitable, they went out of their way to make sure I was having a good experience. You will see a lot of the surrounding area and they are so excited to show you around.

Antonia was very patient during yoga as I was used to a different flow style, it was amazing to have a one to one class.

Luigi just loved exploring and talking about the region, it was a great experience to have someone so passionate showing you around.

"Perfect in Every Way "

Antonia and Luigi made me feel at home at Styleoga from the very moment I arrived. The retreat was the perfect mix of yoga, meditation, walks, cooking with the talented Nadia, delicious meals, quiet time, and history (at my request as a history teacher!) Every moment was thoughtfully and purposefully designed. The village of Forino is charming and quintessentially Italian. The yoga and meditation helped me get centered after a tough emotional year. The food....OMG the food!!! Fresh, simply prepared, healthy and delicious! I left Styleoga feeling like a friend not just a client.

"A much expected retreat that turns out to be average. "

Luigi and Antonia made efforts to make guests happy. The program is flexible. The chef Nadia is nice, discreet and makes delicious food.

Highlight is the day trip to Pompei that I requested and got accommodated. It was absolutely mind blowing.

"My first retreat"

I am a beginner at yoga only doing it at home with a video so was a little worried how I would do but Antonia was very patient and showed me a easier way to do positions and motions to suit my abilities. I never felt inadequate as it was always positive help. Luigi was also great with the walks and describing the history of the area. He also did the meditation which was very relaxing. I have a whole new view of yoga and meditation in a very positive way. Also the cooking classes where fun and well run and all hands on.

"A wonderful personalized retreat for my fitness"

The level of attention from Luigi and Antonia was amazing. They listened to what I wanted to accomplished and where I was on my health & fitness journey and accommodated my every wish. They personalized the 4 days I spent with them. My meals, yoga sessions, hiking and meditation. When there was free time, I was able to rest/read. Luigi took me on a tour to see things I was interested in such as truffles, ricotta di buffala and other local items. I can’t say enough about their kindness and generous hearts.

"A perfect place where learning to be a yoga teacher "

I would like to strongly recommend Styleoga as a reliable & high standard yoga teacher training center. Antonia and Luigi offer a professional, customized and high level preparation to anyone is strongly motivated to be a good yoga teacher. Nadia adds to the training a very balanced gastronomic touch with amazing dishes all elaborated by Antonia, using only tasty local products.

The place is nested in a quite & charming village surrounded by green mountains. The training is also held outdoors so can help the students to relax, get more inspiration and enjoy the stunning nature. If you are looking for a place where you expect professionalism, a very good and complete yoga preparation don’t hesitate to register with Styleoga. You won’t regret it!

I am looking forward to coming back for my next level.

"Excellent Training and Italian Hospitality"

Luigi and Antonia were both knowledgeable, friendly, welcoming and supportive. The course was intense and well planned. Lots of practical experience to build confidence. Their hospitality and kindness was above expectations. The food by chef Nadia was a delight. Included were a few visits to local areas. Forino is a typical traditional Italian village that offers peace away from the city. I enjoyed the course and look forward to taking my own classes. Thank you for your support and teachings!

"Well suited to their clients"

Both Antonia and Luigi were very thoughtful and paid a lot of attention to the detail. Goody bag and tissues came in very handy for my day trip to Pompeii.

Yoga was very relaxing and focussed more on my stretching and holding poses for a longer period which I preferred. Yoga room was nice and warm as the weather was rather cold.

Meals were perfectly portioned, good quality and fresh.

"A great mental, physical and spiritual workout"

Both Antonia and Luigi were extremely well qualified and competent but also encouraging and supportive. They pushed just enough to stretch but did not over face you. They were extremely good company with very interesting conversation on a wide range of ideas and subjects. The food was delicious!

"Yoga and Relaxation"

The 4 day course was a wonderfully relaxing and well organised break with a good balance of yoga, relaxation and activities. Antonia and Luigi are excellent hosts, guides and teachers and Nadia's cooking and lessons were great. A recommended long weekend away in Forino

"Accept, adjust, accommodate "

The retreat coordinators were very warm and friendly, with loads of knowledge and experience in the areas of yoga and meditation. They made an emphasis on breathing in different ways, and positive mindset training.

The food was simple, but nourishing and tasty. Some surprises with mest, packaged goods, with thing a like gelato and pizza that we wouldn't have expected on a yoga retreat!

Overall, it was a good balance and enjoyed the portion control.

Luigi and Antonia are very welcoming and open to talk about life, health, yoga, travel and nutrition and make great hosts with their warm demeanour.

"Wonderful Yoga Training in Italy!"

Antonia and Luigi are the most gracious and wonderful teachers and hosts! By limiting the group to a small amount of people, the focus was very one on one. Over the course of the week, the yoga teaching and training was very detailed and tailored to each student. The meditation training was something I needed more than I even knew! Allowing us to practice teaching together, helped to build our confidence day by day. Breaking up the days with morning and afternoon sessions allowed us to build stamina throughout the week. Mealtime was always a treat with delicious and healthy food prepared with local ingredients. I would highly recommend this training and look forward to begin teaching ASAP!

"Great experience"

Luigi and Antonia are great people and made me feel very welcome. They make sure that they do not take too many people at once on the teacher training so that they can provide personal attention and that was great!

"A disappointing experience"

A nice valley in the moutains even though the village itself isn't really interesting.

It was really great that the hosts picked us up from the airport and to the port as we wanted.

Balanced meals adapted to our diet (vegetarian).

The cooking class with Nadia was really nice.

We did a lot of hikes and it was a good occasion to visit the mountains.

"Amazing stay with wonderful host"

This yoga retreat was an amazing break to enjoy nature, yoga, meditation and food. The host made everything to make you feel confortable and activities are varied and well organized. Antonia and Luigi are stunning people. Don't change anything, it is perfect how it is. Coming back on the small island with a lot of wonderful memories and a unforgettable taste of real Mozzarella di Bufala.

The classes and outdoor activities were just the right balance between challenging and accessible. A well organised retreat, nothing was too much trouble, we were well looked after from beginning to end, highly recommended. Our hosts Luigi & Antonia made this an unforgettable experience for us with their kindness and helpfulness.
